I've been searching for many threads on how to uninstall chainfire 3d on adb, but as of now none of them are working, I have a samsung galaxy s3(GT-19300). My phone is rooted, Ive installed chainfire3d-pro-v3.3.apk , heres what I've been doing as of now.
1.I already run adb on cmd.
2.I type adb shell and got the # sign.
3.I type "cd /system", got pass through, that until "cd /lib" but when i, type "sh cf3d_uninstall.sh or sh /cf3d_uninstall.sh" It say sh cant open cf3d_uninstall.sh.
Why is that and what am I doing wrong? Is there a way to know where the location of cf3d_uninstall? Or is there any other way on how to fix the boot-loop caused by chainfire?
Thank you in Advance
PS: typing sh /system/lib/cf3d_uninstall.sh does not work for me either.

OK. Firstly, I have extensive experience with rooting moto droids and custom roms. That said I got cocky and didn't do enough homework trying to root my girls Eris and proceeded following the instructions in the "1.5 to rooted 2.1" thread. Step 1 went fine. I THINK I have root access. Anyway, like I was tired and couldn't get adb shell working so I left it at that with intent to finish today when I get home from work. Now she's telling me her icons are different and some are linking to different programs. Any ideas? Second, can someone point me in the direction of an adb shell how to, on my Droid I can just use terminal emulation and don't actually need a computer so I'm not too familiar with the process... sorry for the stupid newborn questions, don't pull the flame throwers out yet, thanks!
You can use terminal emulator, same thing for the most part as adb... I use that more then adb, faster then having to connect to a pc IMO.
I tried the terminal emulator and got adb not found or not allowed or some craziness like that. Does that mean I didn't root like I thought? Also, any clue about the icon s changing or linking to other apps like shes claiming? I'm going to try again when she gets home
In the terminal emulator you would not need to type adb.. adb is the program you would be using on a pc to talk to the phone... what is it that you are trying to type through adb or the terminal?
III: Flashing a Custom Recovery
Flashing a custom recovery will make your life easier when flashing ROMs in the future.
1. Download this file: Recovery.zip
2. Extract file contents to your \tools\ directory of your Android SDK.
3. Open up a command prompt and go to your tools directory, and execute these commands:
adb shell mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
adb push recovery.img /sdcard
adb push flash_image /system/bin
adb shell chmod 755 /system/bin/flash_image
adb shell flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img
4. Success! You now have a recovery partition installed on your phone. You can access it by running "adb shell reboot recovery" or by powering off your phone, holding "Volume Up + Power On"
step 3. im an ass. ok so dont type the adb. like i said, not much exp in this part... im guessing i dont tye shell either, but i do type mount?

Oh I see, for that yes you will need to get the SDK setup on your PC as per step 2... There is another thread that has a batch file that does all of this for you. You still need the SDK though.
see: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=651669
ok, i have the sdk, i followed these instructions to the letter, and i still couldnt get it running last night, where in the sdk do i do this from or is it a command promp, or can i use the terminal emulator?
yes in the command prompt, typically adb.exe will be in your tools folder.
also, and i know im being a pain now, but by adb does it mean the adb in the tools directory of the sdk, i click it and it runs a script then dissapears.

yes, adb needs to be ran through the command prompt, if you click on it in windows it wont work... read the thread I linked you to, you wont need to run adb if you use that method, it does it all for you.
yeah im downloading the file now, but im just curious, now i want to be able to do it just to do it. i hate when i cant figure crap like this out,
so far ive done this, opened command promp, put in C:\androidsdk\android-sdk-windows\tools\adb.exe and it runs a script then nothing

go to start, run and type cmd and enter. then in that window
you have to change to the tools directory at the command prompt like so"
cd androidsdk\android-sdk-windows\tools
then type adb

Yeah, once you do what he states and type...
cd androidsdk\android-sdk-windows\tools ... or where ever you have your SDK saved at on your computer ... you should be good to start running those scripts in the directions.
I tried loading the Aria into an adb shell, then tried the reboot command (just "reboot"). It replies "reboot: no such tool".
I also wrote a quick script with GScript and ran it with su permissions (my phone is rooted with clockworkmod, and liberated), and the same message showed on screen.
I also made a separate script that just runs "ls /system/bin" and I can clearly see the "reboot" command in the directory. Again, when I try to run /system/bin/reboot with su priveleges, it gives the same message.
I'm tempted to think that the reboot command in /system/bin simply runs the command "echo reboot: no such tool". Does anyone have any more information about this? I'd like a script that would use the reboot command to reboot into recovery mode.
I believe you should be able to use "shutdown /r" to reboot the phone.. probably needs to be done with sudo though..

I can reboot the phone using ADB by typing adb reboot... Or in terminal on the phone itself I su and then enter reboot and voila...
Not sure if this helps or not.
Edit: I am also running CM6 which has busybox installed.
The way I do it from shell is to type 'exit', this takes you out of shell. Then I type 'adb reboot'
Your path is probably not correct on the device. To change the path you need to edit init.rc and add the correct path.
I have had this same problem and now think that the tool unrevoked is messing the path variable up.
Let me know what you discover.
Same
I also have the same problem. I checked init.rc and i didnt find something about reboot. I run S5 Sensenation ROM. I will check again, But i happy to see that im not the only one who have the problem.....
Hi everyone, i need a little help.
While in adb i was about to do some modding and i entered adb shell, so as soon as i het enter i also started typing su.

Type 'cd /' without the quotes.
Did the default.prop file get changed?
Hello sir! I just wana ask question on how to run commands like this
su -c /system/etc/CrossBreeder/REMOVE_TETHER_BOOST
i've seen this in the Cross Breeder thread. I just wanna try it to reduce the lag on my phone and maybe also to speed it up!
but if i came across with this unexpected problems . i really dont know how to run this commands. so i just wanna ask . how do i run commands like that? THANKS IN ADVANCE
These commands are run via a terminal emulator on your phone. For this command, your phone have to be rooted.
Alternatively, you can use adb shell. To do so, you have to download the android sdk or google for adb for just downloading the relevant part of it, then you have to run adb root to get root privileges (the adb binary can be found under Path/to/Android-SDK/platform-tools) and adb shell to get a root shell. There you have to type in /system/etc/CrossBreeder/REMOVE_TETHER_BOOST (the su -c is not needed there because you already have root privileges).
hi,
quick question..
i put "setprop service.adb.tcp.port 5555" in file.txt, and save this to /sdcard.
if i run "sh /sdcard/file.txt" from adb shell, on pc, then it works and getprop confirms.
if i run "sh /sdcard/file.txt" from terminal emulator, on phone, it says "could not set property".
can someone explain this behaviour? tahnk you.
in addition, where should you save shell scripts on your phone?
do you guys use shell scripts? can you give examples of what you use them for?

Try "su" command first and grant root access to terminal app

thanks for the reply, minimale.
okay. so, as you suggested, it works when i do it as root from the terminal app.
but couple of things.
1) Why can i run it from adbshell without 'su' command. through adb shell it still works as "[email protected]:/ $" instead of "[email protected]:/ #"
2) how come, without 'su', I can access "/sdcard" (as "[email protected]: / $"). but, as root, I have to go through "/data/media/0"

I'm glad I helped, but have no idea where the differences between ADB and terminal emulator come from. It's beyond my current knowledge.
